About

Since 2017, I’ve been blogging about writing, poetry, short stories, the arts, and more. I gravitate toward the strange, so you’re likely to come across monsters and things that “…comfort the disturbed and disturbs the comfortable.”

I can usually be found in pubs and bars across SF, reading a book or scribbling down poems. With a B.A. in English, I’m a word nerd who loves to pick apart sentences, craft compelling stories, and help fellow writers.
